In this debut episode of the BCO’s Workspace Unwired podcast, chief executive Samantha McClary sits down with Helen Hare, director of projects at GPE, to find out a little bit more about the newly installed president of the British Council for Offices.

Listen in to find out what makes Helen tick, her journey into real estate and why, if you want to be successful, picking your team well and being an ace at project management are vital skills to have.

We talk more about the value that comes from the BCO’s unrivalled access to excellence, the importance of talent in the sector, the need to close a growing skills gap, the importance of language, Helen’s responsibility as a visible role model and how the world of workspace and work places needs to be more widely recognised as contributor to growth.

There’s all that and so much more.

Enjoy.
